Lentra acquires Data Harbor to enter analytics space
Lentra, the Intelligent Decisioning Enterprise Platform for Lending, has announced its strategic entry into the analytics space with the acquisition of Data Harbor, a real-time, AI-powered data science company.
The acquisition will strengthen the Lentra Intelligence Stack, which sits on top of the lender’s institutional intel to provide digital insights, recommendations and executional automation to all stakeholders across the loan lifecycle.
Lending today operates in an increasingly data-rich and interconnected environment, where the factors influencing credit outcomes can change rapidly. Banks therefore need timely, reliable insights to assess evolving risks and respond effectively across the loan lifecycle. As data becomes more widely available, the ability to turn it into actionable intelligence is becoming increasingly important for banks.
Founded by Ephraim Goldin, Data Harbor was spun off from G-STAT, Israel’s leading big-data analytics company. Its team, originating from G-STAT’s Innovation Lab, brings 20 years of experience across big-data projects in fintech and retail. Its technology and expertise in real-time data consolidation, predictive analytics, data science, algorithms and engineering will be integrated into the Lentra Intelligence Stack to support lenders globally.

🏅 Commodity Update — 04 Sep 2026 | By Gaurav Garg, Head - Research, Lemonn
Gold $4,468/oz ≈ ₹1,35,600/10g 🟢 +0.6%
Silver $66.8/oz ≈ ₹2,02,500/kg 🔴 -0.2%
Crude (WTI) $91.85/bbl ≈ ₹8,690/bbl 🟢 +0.6%
USD/INR: ~93.90
Gold is holding firm near record highs after a sharp rebound, supported by easing Fed rate-hike expectations following softer U.S. labour signals and dovish comments from Fed Governor Christopher Waller. Markets are now focused on today’s U.S. Nonfarm Payrolls report, which could determine the next move in the dollar, Treasury yields and precious metals. Meanwhile, WTI remains elevated near $92 as U.S.-Iran tensions and supply risks continue to support crude prices, creating inflationary pressure. For India, a stronger rupee provides some relief, while elevated crude remains a key risk for inflation and domestic commodity prices.

Market review by Vikram Subburaj, CEO, Giottus.com
September 4, 2026
Bitcoin’s return above $80,000 on September 4 is important because it places the market within 3% of the level that could define its next phase. BTC was at $80,718 at 8.35 am IST. The asset was up 3.72% over 24 hours after trading between $77,083 and $82,262. The rebound from $77,000 on September 3 shows how quickly sentiment can turn when interest-rate expectations change. The probability of a US rate increase in September fell to about 50% after Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller indicated that he could support leaving rates unchanged. The probability had stood above 63% only 1 day earlier.
Yet $80,000 is not the level that will settle the argument over Bitcoin’s direction. The immediate resistance lies between $82,260 and $82,800. Beyond that is a much heavier supply band between $83,000 and $86,000. A sustained close above roughly $83,300 would indicate that the market has absorbed coins held by investors who bought near earlier highs.
The ETF data explain why the recovery deserves attention despite this resistance. US spot-Bitcoin ETFs recorded 9 consecutive inflow sessions between August 17 and August 27. Those sessions brought in about $3.04 billion. The streak showed that the rise from below $65,000 was supported by institutional capital and was not sustained by leveraged traders alone.
Demand became less consistent after August 27. The ETFs lost $201.9 million on August 28 before receiving $216.7 million on August 31. A $236.5 million outflow followed on September 1. Inflows then returned with $101.1 million on September 2 and a provisional $276.8 million on September 3.
The September 1-3 period still produced a net inflow of about $141.4 million. The wider August 17-September 3 period attracted approximately $3.20 billion. Institutional investors have therefore not abandoned the recovery. However, the daily reversals show that they are becoming more sensitive to price and macroeconomic risk.
The on-chain picture carries a similar message. Glassnode estimated that 68% of Bitcoin supply was in profit when the price returned to around $78,000 in late August. Only 65% of supply had been profitable when Bitcoin traded at a similar level in May. The additional 3 percentage points represent coins that can now be sold without a loss.
The macro calendar could decide whether these sellers gain control. The September 4 US employment report is expected to show around 56,000 new jobs in August. A materially stronger figure could push Treasury yields higher and revive expectations of another rate increase. A weaker number could improve the case for the Federal Reserve to retain its present 3.50%-3.75% range. US producer inflation is due on September 10 and consumer inflation follows on September 11. The Federal Reserve will then meet on September 15-16. These 3 events could matter more to Bitcoin than any crypto-specific announcement, as the current rally has become closely tied to yields and US liquidity.
The broader market was positive on September 4. Ethereum rose 3.96% to about $2,501. BNB gained 4.17% to $722.91. XRP led the large-cap group with a 5.49% rise to $1.44, while Solana advanced 2.69% to $103.65 and TRON added 1.37% to $0.3296. These gains show that confidence is extending beyond Bitcoin, but the market has not yet entered an indiscriminate altcoin rally. XRP’s 5.49% gain exceeded Bitcoin’s 3.72% rise, while Solana’s 2.69% return lagged it. The variation suggests that investors are still choosing liquid assets individually instead of buying the entire market without distinction.
Our advice: Bitcoin now has a clear decision range. A sustained move beyond $83,000-$86,000 would support a later advance towards $90,000. A failure to hold $79,500-$80,000 would bring $77,000 back into focus. Investors should not interpret the 24% August recovery as a reason to chase Bitcoin with high leverage near $83,000. The stronger approach is to watch whether ETF inflows continue after September 4 and whether BTC can close above $83,300. The next 12 days contain the US jobs report, 2 inflation releases and the September 16 Federal Reserve decision, leaving little room for careless positioning.

Manav Modi, Commodities Analyst, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd
Gold prices were held near $4,500 after gaining almost 2% in the previous session, supported by easing expectations of an imminent Fed rate hike, a weaker US dollar and lower Treasury yields.
Bullion extended its recovery after Fed Governor Christopher Waller indicated he could support keeping interest rates unchanged at the September 15-16 meeting if incoming data confirm that inflation is continuing to moderate. Waller said August inflation readings would be crucial for his decision, while keeping the door open to further tightening should price pressures reaccelerate.
His comments triggered a sharp repricing in rate expectations, with the probability of a September hike falling to around 50% from nearly 70% earlier this week. Lower rate expectations typically support non-yielding gold by reducing the opportunity cost of holding bullion. The dollar also weakened as the Japanese yen surged nearly 2%, its strongest daily advance since the joint US-Japan currency intervention just over a month ago, keeping markets alert to further action from authorities.
Lower Treasury yields provided additional support to precious metals. Market attention now shifts to U.S. nonfarm payrolls report, which will be crucial in determining whether signs of labor-market cooling are sufficient to keep the Fed on hold, while next week’s inflation data will provide the final major test for September rate expectations.

Darshan Desai, CEO, Aspect Bullion & Refinery
“Gold has seen a highly volatile week, with prices correcting sharply earlier before recovering towards the end of the week. The latest move highlights that while short-term sentiment remains sensitive to US rate expectations, the underlying demand for bullion continues to remain strong.
From the bullion industry’s perspective, the focus now shifts towards the festive and upcoming wedding season, when physical demand traditionally gains momentum. Elevated prices may lead buyers to adopt a more staggered approach, but gold continues to retain its importance as both a traditional purchase and a store of value.
Looking ahead, we expect volatility to remain high, with US jobs data, Fed policy, the dollar and geopolitical developments influencing global prices. However, with festive demand building and central-bank buying providing structural support, we remain cautiously positive on bullion over the medium term.”

Quote | Riya Sehgal, Research Analyst, Delta Exchange
“Bitcoin and the broader crypto market staged a sharp recovery, with total market capitalisation rising 3.9% to around $2.72 trillion as major digital assets moved higher.
Bitcoin climbed more than 4% to around $81,000 after briefly testing $82,000, while Ethereum gained 4.5%. BNB, Solana and XRP also advanced, with XRP among the strongest major tokens, rising nearly 6%. The broad-based gains suggest the move extended well beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The rally followed comments from Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller indicating that a September rate hike may not be necessary if inflation continues to moderate. The remarks eased some concerns over US monetary policy and supported a broader risk-on move across financial markets.
Leverage appears to have amplified the rally. Around $691 million in crypto positions were liquidated over the latest 24-hour period, a 166% increase from the previous day. The sharp rise in liquidations alongside higher prices suggests forced short covering contributed significantly to the move, adding buying pressure as bearish positions were closed.
Market sentiment has also strengthened, with the Crypto Fear & Greed Index reaching 78, firmly in greed territory.
Bitcoin now faces resistance around $82,000–$84,000. A pullback toward $78,000–$78,900 could provide a test of the breakout, while US employment data could determine whether the recovery extends or loses momentum.”

“The crypto market has staged a strong rebound, with Bitcoin reclaiming the $80,000 mark and trading around $81,000, while Ethereum has moved above $2,500 and XRP has gained nearly 6% to around $1.43. The broad-based recovery suggests buying interest has returned across major assets, supported in part by easing expectations of a September Fed rate hike. XRP’s relative outperformance is particularly notable as momentum extends beyond Bitcoin into large-cap altcoins.
The next few sessions will be important in determining whether this recovery can sustain. Investors should avoid chasing sharp intraday moves and instead consider staggered entries while watching whether Bitcoin can establish itself firmly above $80,000 and Ethereum holds the $2,500 zone. Upcoming US employment data could also influence expectations around the Federal Reserve and therefore remain an important trigger for crypto markets.”

Bitcoin rally aided by Waller’s rate-hold signal; $83,000 is key resistance: Mudrex
Bitcoin has rallied from around $77,200 to above $81,000 after Fed Governor Christopher Waller signalled support for holding rates at the upcoming FOMC meeting if inflation continues to ease. The shift pushed September rate-hike expectations down 12 percentage points to 54.6% and weakened the dollar, improving the appetite for risk assets. Bitcoin is also showing a stronger link with gold, with its correlation at the highest level since 2020. However, unusually extreme fund flows for six consecutive days could be a warning sign for prices. BTC now needs to break the $83,000 resistance, while support has moved up to $78,000, said Prateek Gupta, Head of Business, Mudrex.

Bitcoin climbed above $81,000, supported by US spot ETF inflows and Strategy returning to the market as a buyer. The broader trend remains positive, with BTC trading above its key moving averages. However, momentum is starting to look stretched, as the daily RSI has moved above 73, while the hourly RSI is above 80, signalling overbought conditions. A short-term consolidation or pullback would therefore be healthy. $80,000 remains the key support zone, while a decisive move above $83,000 could open the door for further upside, said Balaji Srihari, VP - Business, India, CoinSwitch.

Quote: Nischal Shetty, Founder, WazirX
“US services PMI rose to 55.4, supporting confidence and demand for Bitcoin and Ethereum, but the 72.6 price index signals inflation that could keep crypto liquidity tight. Low jobless claims reinforce risk appetite, while weaker exports and a wider trade deficit may lower growth and yields, benefiting digital-asset valuations. A Fed pause would support ETF flows, whereas Bank of Japan tightening could unwind carry trades and trigger volatility. Brent above $95 threatens easing. Overall, crypto’s backdrop remains constructive.
Bitcoin trades near $81,000 in a bullish daily structure, with RSI near 71 indicating elevated momentum. Immediate support sits at $79,700-$80,000, while $81,000-$81,500 forms resistance. Holding support could sustain buyer control; clearing resistance may strengthen momentum, while losing support would expose secondary support around $78,400-$78,850 during near-term consolidation.
Ethereum trades near $2,506 with a strong bullish daily setup and neutral RSI near 67. Immediate support rests around $2,460-$2,480, while $2,520-$2,550 represents resistance above the psychological $2,500 level. Futures traders may monitor volume, open interest, and funding before confirming broader upside participation.
Zcash trades near $940 after a strong advance, with moving averages firmly bullish but RSI near 74 showing stretched momentum. Immediate support is at $908-$920, while $950-$975 marks nearby supply. Remaining above support could protect the uptrend; a breakdown would bring the $845-$850 secondary zone back into focus for traders.
Global risk appetite strengthened as the Dow gained 1.18%, the S&P 500 rose 1.06%, and the Nasdaq advanced 1.40%, while the VIX dropped 5.79% to 14.32. Asian equities were broadly positive, led by the Hang Seng at 2.03% and KOSPI at 1.13%, despite Sensex weakness. Gold slipped 0.43%, signaling limited defensive positioning, while oil rose 0.69%. Stronger equities, lower volatility and broad Asian participation create a constructive backdrop for crypto demand and capital rotation globally.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded roughly $135 million in net outflows week-to-date through September 2, as a $101 million daily rebound only partly offset earlier withdrawals, while Ethereum ETFs saw about $37 million in net outflows over the same period. Bitcoin subsequently rallied above $81,000, while Ether reclaimed $2,500. ETF flows do not always translate directly into price gains, as macro conditions, derivatives positioning, profit-taking, and broader spot-market activity can offset institutional demand.”

MNCL Research maintains Buy on Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd; TP ₹320
Mrs Bectors Food Specialities Ltd | Market cap: ₹7,100 crore | CMP: ₹231 | Target price: ₹320 | Rating: Buy
Mrs Bectors reported resilient revenue performance in FY26 despite multiple external disruptions, including global tariff uncertainty, GST 2.0 implementation, commodity and wage inflation, higher logistics costs, geopolitical disruptions in West Asia and export supply-chain challenges.
Growth was largely driven by the bakery business, while the biscuit segment remained impacted by these headwinds. Going forward, MNCL Research expects the biscuit business to stabilise, supported by the benefits of GST 2.0 and a recovery in exports.
The company’s capacity expansion is progressing well, with the Kolkata facility strengthening its presence in East India and the Khopoli plant ramping up in the West. With the major commissioning cycle largely completed, the brokerage expects improving utilisation, operating leverage and lower logistics costs to support margin recovery. Management reiterated its 14% EBITDA margin target by the end of FY27.
MNCL Research maintains its Buy rating and values the stock at 40x Q1FY29E EPS of about ₹8, arriving at a revised target price of ₹320.

CLSA: Sterlite Tech at a pivotal moment; Outperform, TP ₹950
Sterlite Tech (STL) hosted a virtual analyst meeting on business performance, strategic priorities and outlook.
Management said the business is at a pivotal moment, with the scale of opportunity enhanced significantly by AI data centres (DC). AI DC needs are very different from traditional DCs, including higher AI density driving multi-fold growth besides interconnection between DCs. In addition to the US DC opportunity for STL, the Indian market will also see 10 GW by 2030 from the current 1.5 GW. India’s DC market will provide an added opportunity for STL to extend global relationships to the home market.
STL is targeting ₹20,000 crore revenue by FY29 (versus CLSA’s estimate of ₹10,400 crore), with a margin of 27% (versus the brokerage’s estimate of 23%). STL will be expanding capacity to 1.5 times to enable the next growth phase and will invest ₹1,000 crore annually, including a new greenfield manufacturing facility in India.
CLSA reiterates Outperform and its ₹950 target price.
